LIVE From Mexico: More Than a Passage Route

Often Mexico is seen as just a passage route for migrants on their way to the United States, but in this episode, ITT looks at immigration through the eyes of Mexico. This country is becoming a host for migrants and for years has followed the lead of militarized immigration policy of its neighbor to the North. For the LIVE In The Thick from Mexico City, Maria and Julio talk about immigration in Mexico from the Central American migrant caravan to repatriated deportees with Eunice Rendón, coordinator of the Agenda Migrante collective, and Maggie Loredo, co-founder of the deportees organization Otros Dreams en Acción.   This episode was mixed by Jeanne Montalvo.    ITT Staff Picks
